FAQs

See our frequently asked questions here, or if you have an alternative query please contact us and a member of the team will be happy to help.

We are hearing/reading a lot about various cloud providers, IaaS, PaaS, SaaS offerings and subscriptions. Where do we begin?

The first step you should take is a feasibility assessment for each workload, clearly defining the project with a set of measureable & achievable goals. Benchmark the use to your business vs cost.

How do we measure the TCO of our on premise estate vs cloud?

You need to calculate the real cost for running your datacentre, not just keeping the infrastructure up to date, but also power, cooling and all associated running costs. This is the benchmark you should use for cloud comparison.

Is cloud all just marketing hype?

Not if you’ve planned your journey right.
